Warcraft III March 2007 Money List

Two Night Elves dominate the money list after both of them take first place finishes with $10,000 payouts. Moon ranks first after winning the MBCGame Warcraft World War (W3), taking down Grubby 3:0 in a best of 5 match, which awarded him $10,000. The rest of his earnings come from MYM's 2nd place finish for the WC3L Season 10, along with the W3 Team where the $10,000 pot was split three ways.

ReMinD, trailing only by less than $2000 behind Moon, skyrocketed the list with his BNET Season 4 first place win. Added to that, he also won the recent CEG in Xi'an, along with the split prize for WC3L third place. Next in line is Grubby, whose biggest contribution is W3, takes in $8000. Four Kings' first place finish in WC3L net him a little more than $3,000 and his own 3rd place finish in BNET S4 merits him $2,000 for a total of $10,250.

The largest contributions to 2007's money list comes from Warcraft World War. Without this new league, Moon would only be left with $1,950 share of MYM's prize for the WC3L. Blizzard's tournament gave a big payout to ReMinD who won first place, and without Moon wining W3 team, he could have taken the first place.

The rest of the top ten is dominated by Four Kings and Meet Your Makers players, mostly due to the WC3L. There are two exceptions though: Shy, from team NoA, who climbed up the W3 ladder impressively which earned him $2,000 after he lost to Grubby. ChecK from wNv, clocks in at 10th place, with his meager $200 earning from W3, but a decent $1,666 split from wNv's participation in the W3 team league.

Money amounts are listed in US Dollars. Prizes not in USD are converted at the time of winning. In addition, only money earned in tournaments is counted.

For events to be included in this list they had to meet certain criteria. The first prize for WC3 tournaments had to be two thousand dollars or more, this prevents LAN tournaments that take place at your local net cafe from being included. These totals do not include hardware or other prizes (ie WSVG
Rolex Watches). They also do not reflect the management's cut of players winnings. Team prizes are split based on participation in matches (4K played three matches at the WC3L finals, FuRy played two while Zeus played one).
